LIMITED WAIVER AND TWELFTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Limited Waiver and Twelfth Amendment to Credit Agreement (this “Waiver”), dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Waiver Effective Date”), is among Memorial Production Operating LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Borrower”); Memorial Production Partners LP, a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Parent”); each of the other undersigned guarantors (together with the Borrower and the Parent, collectively, the “Loan Parties”); each of the Lenders that is a signatory hereto (each, a “Consenting Lender” and, collectively, the “Consenting Lenders”); and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors, the “Administrative Agent”).

Recitals

A. The Borrower, the Parent, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 14, 2011 (as amended, restated, amended and restated supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders have, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, made certain credit available to, and on behalf of, the Borrower.

B. Pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Parent’s 7 5/8% Senior Notes due 2021 (such Senior Notes, the “2021 Notes”), the Parent and Memorial Production Finance Corporation (collectively, the “Issuers”) are obligated to pay interest semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year (the payment due November 1, 2016, the “November 2016 Interest Payment”).

C. In the event the Issuers fail to make the November 2016 Interest Payment, such failure shall result in an automatic Event of Default under Section 10.01(f) of the Credit Agreement and a Default under Section 10.01(e) and Section 10.01(g)(ii) of the Credit Agreement (such prospective Event of Default and prospective Default are referred to herein, collectively, as the “Prospective Defaults”).

D. The Borrower requests that the Lenders waive the Prospective Defaults.

E. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Defined Terms. Each capitalized term which is defined in the Credit Agreement, but which is not defined in this Waiver, shall have the meaning ascribed such term in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby. Unless otherwise indicated, all section references in this Waiver refer to the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. Limited Waiver. In reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Waiver, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 hereof, effective as of the Waiver Effective Date, each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Consenting Lenders, for itself and the other Secured Parties, hereby waives the Prospective Defaults (such waiver, the “Limited Waiver”) until the Waiver Period (as defined below) ends in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 3. Covenants of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, during the period commencing on the Waiver Effective Date and ending on November 30, 2016 at 5:00 pm, New York City time (such period, the “Waiver Period”), the Borrower and each Loan Party covenants and agrees with the Lenders that:

(a) Mandatory Prepayment. If any Loan Party receives any net cash proceeds (1) during the Waiver Period or (2) in connection with any Disposition (as defined below) entered into, committed to or consummated prior to or during the Waiver Period, in each case, from (i) any sale or other disposition of any of its notes receivable or accounts receivable made in accordance with Section 9.10 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) the consummation, whether in a single transaction or a series of transactions, of any sale, assignment, farm-out, conveyance or other transfer of any Property made in accordance with Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement (other than to the extent permitted by clause (a) of Section 9.12 of the Credit Agreement) or (iii) any Swap Liquidation in respect of commodities made in accordance with clause (d) of Section 9.18 of the Credit Agreement (other than any Swap Liquidation (including in respect of the Liquidation of any transaction thereunder) of the Swap Agreement between the Borrower and Shell Trading Risk Management LLC) (the transactions contemplated by the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), “Dispositions”), in each case, the Borrower shall (x) prepay, without duplication of any other prepayment required under the Credit Agreement (including in connection with any Borrowing Base Deficiency), an aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings equal to 100% of such net cash proceeds immediately upon any Loan Party’s receipt of such net cash proceeds and (y) reduce the Aggregate Elected Commitment Amounts (ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage) by the amount of such prepayment; provided, that the foregoing shall not require any prepayment in connection with a Swap Liquidation to the extent that upon any such Liquidation, the Liquidated Swap Agreement (or transaction thereunder) is replaced, in a substantially contemporaneous transaction, with one or more Swap Agreements or transactions with approximately the same mark-to-market value and without the receipt by any Loan Party of any net cash proceeds as a result thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 9.10, 9.12 or 9.18 of the Credit Agreement to the contrary, the Loan Parties agree that 100% of the aggregate consideration received in respect of any sale, disposition or Swap Liquidation permitted by such Sections shall consist of cash or Cash Equivalents. For the avoidance of doubt, prepayment obligations arising under this clause (a) shall survive in respect of any Disposition committed to or consummated during the Waiver Period for which the net cash proceeds in respect thereof are not received until after the expiration of the Waiver Period.

(b) Information. The Parent will deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Wednesday (i) commencing November 9, 2016, a report showing actual receipts and disbursements through Friday of the prior week, and a reconciliation of actual expenditures and disbursements with those set forth in the Budget (as defined below), on a line by line basis showing any variance to the proposed corresponding line item of the 13-week cash flow forecast delivered to the Administrative Agent on the Waiver Effective Date (the “Budget”), which report and reconciliation shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) commencing November 9, 2016, an updated rolling 13-week cash flow forecast of the Parent and its Subsidiaries substantially in the same form as the Budget, (iii) commencing November 2, 2016, a report showing the aging of accounts payable and accounts receivable through Friday of the prior week and (iv) commencing November 2, 2016, a report showing the cash balance as of the prior Friday in each deposit account, securities account and commodity account held by each Loan Party and each Subsidiary of a Loan Party.

No Loan Party will incur, create, assume or suffer to exist any Debt other than to the extent permitted by clauses (a), (b), (d) (so long as the Administrative Agent receives prior written notice if any such Debt exceeds $250,000 individually or $1,000,000 in the aggregate during the Waiver Period), (e), (f) (solely in respect of interest accrued in respect of Permitted Senior Unsecured Notes issued as of the date hereof and any guarantees in respect thereof (including any guarantees of obligations that are increased as a result of such accrued interest) in existence on the Waiver Effective Date), and (h) of Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement. For clarification purposes, the foregoing shall not prohibit any Debt incurred, created, assumed or in existence prior to the Waiver Effective Date.

(d) Liens. No Loan Party will create, incur, assume or permit any Liens on any of their respective Properties (now owned or hereafter acquired) other than to the extent permitted by clauses (a) and (b) of Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(e) Dividends, Distributions and Repayment of Permitted Additional Debt.

(ii) No Loan Party will call, make or offer to make any optional or voluntary Redemption of or otherwise optionally or voluntarily Redeem (whether in whole or in part) any Debt.

(f) Investments and Loans. No Loan Party will make or permit to remain outstanding any Investments in or to any Person or any loans made between the Parent and Borrower or any intercompany loans other than to the extent permitted by clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g)(i), (g)(ii) and (g)(iv) (solely in respect of cash collateral in an aggregate amount not to exceed $600,000 released in connection with any surety or bond arrangements in existence on the Waiver Effective Date and deposited into an account held by MEMP S-1, Inc. or MEMP S-2, Inc.) of Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement. For clarification purposes, the foregoing shall not prohibit any Investments made prior to the Waiver Effective Date.

(g) Limitation on Leases. No Loan Party will create, incur or assume any obligation for the payment of rent or hire Property of any kind whatsoever (real or personal but excluding (i) Capital Leases in existence on the Waiver Effective Date to the extent such Capital Leases do not go beyond the value and terms of the leased property, (ii) leases of Hydrocarbon Interests in the ordinary course of business and (iii) any lease entered into with the Port of Long Beach or entered into in respect of the current company headquarters, in each case, in the ordinary course of business) under leases or lease agreements.

(h) Mergers, Etc. No Loan Party will merge into or with or consolidate with any other Person, or permit any other Person to merge into or consolidate with it, other than the merger or consolidation of any Loan Party or non-Loan Party into a Loan Party so long as (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Loan Party is the surviving Person (or, in the case of any

Section 5. Conditions Precedent to this Waiver. The effectiveness of the Limited Waiver contained in Section 2 hereof and effectiveness of the amendment contained in Section 4 hereof are subject to the following:

(a) The Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Waiver from the Loan Parties and the Majority Lenders.

 

5

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of this Waiver, and such notice shall be conclusive and binding.

Section 6. Post-Closing Covenant regarding Mortgages. In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 8.14 of the Credit Agreement, in connection with each redetermination of the Borrowing Base from and including the Waiver Effective Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall review the Reserve Report and the list of current Mortgaged Properties (as described in Section 8.12(c)(vi)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least 95% (or such lesser amount agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, which lesser amount shall not be less than 92%) of the total value of the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in the most recently completed Reserve Report after giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production. In the event that the Mortgaged Properties do not represent at least 95% (or such lesser amount agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, which lesser amount shall not be less than 92%) of such total value, then the Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Loan Parties to, prior to the expiration of the Waiver Period, grant to the Administrative Agent as security for the Indebtedness a first-priority Lien interest (provided that Excepted Liens of the type described in clauses (a) to (d) and (f) of the definition thereof may exist, but subject to the provisos at the end of such definition) on additional Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties not already subject to a Lien of the Security Instruments such that after giving effect thereto, the Mortgaged Properties will represent at least 95% (or such lesser amount agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, which lesser amount shall not be less than 92%) of such total value. All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the provisions of deeds of trust, security agreements and financing statements or other Security Instruments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in sufficient executed (and acknowledged where necessary or appropriate) counterparts for recording purposes.

Section 7. Representations and Warranties; Etc.
